As a family, we decided to take a trip to California for fall break. The kids and Sharri were off from Wednesday until Sunday, so we decided since our Six Flags season passes were still good, that we would go for a couple of days. Our neighbors, the Autrey's (Rob, Janet and Sarah) came with us last time, so they came with us this time too. Also, Erika took her friend, Rachel, to be her buddy. Today, we drove half way and stopped in St. George for lunch at the IN-n-OUT Burgers and then stayed at the Spring Hill Suites Marriot in Henderson, Nevada for the night. After we checked in to our hotel and rested for a couple of hours, we decided to go to the strip to see a couple of things. We parked at the Belligio Hotel and walked a couple of blocks to the New York New York Hotel to ride the roller coaster. It was $14 a person, but we went anyways. It really was really shaky and whip your head and neck pretty good. It had an upside down loop in it and a cork screw. Sharri said if she would have know there was a cork screw, that she might have thought twice about riding it. Riley and his friend, Sarah, wanted to go again, so Brian and Rob took them to ride it again for half price. Then we walked across the street to the M & M World store. There are 4 floors of all kinds of stuff with M & M's on them and in every color you can think of. We also went next store to the Coca-Cola store and saw all the stuff they had with Coca-Cola on it, including more face cards for Nertz. We walked back to our car and drove to the Cheesecake Factory and had dinner and of course cheesecake. We were so full of food and yummy cheesecake we could hardly move. Las Vegas was fun, but we were off the next day to Santa Clarita, California.
